    Not true. I wax every month without removing any clear coat.

    Wax will protect your car's coating. Only rubbing compounds will "rub" you car's coating as a matter of fact.

    No one answered and I'm interested to know exactly what is the difference. This is what I found:



    What's the difference between the two?

    According to this car-detailer, the difference lies in the process of putting on the coat. A ceramic coating process requires heating, while glass coating bonds to the car's paint immediately upon application.

    some waxes add more protective layers, as they are applied.
    some car shine products (some "simoniz" products, rubbing compound, and other similar abrasive products) sand away the dulled, less shine-y superficial layer of your car's finish, to bring out the mas matingkad na paint underneath it. after so many applications thru the years, unti-unti nang lumalabas ang grey factory rustproofing paint underneath.
